My only suggestion would be to incorporate overclocking into your experiment. Benchmark your performance stats with no cooling - "stock" and 1 or 2 "overclocked" settings. Then, run the "stock" and "overclocked" settings with 1 type of "standard" cooling (if there is a standard or basic type of cooling), and then maybe another, more robust type of cooling. The other thing to consider is the load you have on the CPU in each test, and making sure it is exactly the same in each one. You should also verify the temp of each cooling method and the room temp as well for each test, and ensure they are both uniform - otherwise those variables will leave you open for innacuracies. That's my 2 cents, and I'm very interested in seeing how this goes...
